MOMENTS TO REMEMBER
Engagement sessions allow you to get comfortable in front of the camera in a more casual setting before a busy wedding day. I aim for authentic interactions between the two of you, and engagement sessions are the perfect way for you to get a feel for my posing style before we are on a tighter wedding timeline.
These photos document your journey together and should be as unique and special as your love for one another.

HOW MANY IMAGES SHOULD WE EXPECT TO BE DELIVERED?

DO YOU OFFER PAYMENT PLANS?
Yes, I offer an installment billing option that works best for you. The final payment is due the day of the wedding.

I offer printing services but you are not obligated to order prints from me. I can provide you with a print release form for your use at a printing lab of your choice.
ARE THERE ANY TRAVEL COSTS?
There's no travel fee anywhere within 1.5 hours from Kill Devil Hills, NC.

I shoot with Nikon Z6II and Nikon Z6. I have various prime lenses, wide angle and zoon lens (35mm 1.8, 50mm 1.8, 16-24 mm 2.8, and 70-200mm 2.8) and multiple flashes. I am geared to work with off camera flash, but I prefer to use natural light whenever I can!
DO YOU SEND RAW PHOTOS?
No. Editing is half the magic! My photos wouldn't be complete without it.
